Notes

  • If you do not have Dutch oven you can simply cook the potatoes in vegetable broth in a stock pot or a saute pan. Then, spoon it out in a greased baking dish evenly spreading the potatoes in the baking pan. Then pour the cauliflower cheese sauce over it and bake for 30 minutes. Turn it off and garnish and serve.
  • Oat milk also works well in this recipe but do not use canned coconut milk or else the coconut flavor will overpower the dish.
